📖 About This Game

This game depicts the encirclement of the German XXV Reserve Corps southeast of the town of Lods in POLAND. This is a classic battle of maneuver where the Germans initially overwhelmed the Russian forces in front of them only to have the Russians send in reinforcements only to have the encircled Germans breakout.
